Nowrap[edit]
Hi! Sorry for the revertion, but names aren't a suitable use of non-breaking spaces. However, if your table (as it is in this case) can't be wrapped, you can actually denote this in the heading. In that table, the first column has nowrap. We shouldn't use on individual names, if it is the whole table that needs formatting. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 11:42, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- All good Lee, thanks for the clarification. 5225C (talk • contributions) 11:43, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
relevance?[edit]
UWA campus transitions of where the student guild offices were is worth commentary, as the various parts of the structures in the building east of winthrop hall were susceptible to a range of university administrative and guild politics which reliable sources might not be easily found...
Also I would not have included reference or links to harris or stone - that is up to the reader,
the 1970s/1980s was a vital era for the transition of the guild and the university for that matter, and the article so far has been a serious victim to recentism...
The date and claim about nudity is complete and utter rubbish btw. JarrahTree 13:15, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- @JarrahTree: While the information re: offices might well be true, I don't see why it should be included in the article unless there is substantial coverage to justify it with. Just saying "Pelican had offices ina university building and then moved to the Guild center" isn't exactly important. The same is true when it comes to talking about "notable individuals", the reader needs to know who that is or it's just a hollow statement without substance to back it up. As far as the nudity claim goes, I can verify that it was still occurring up to at least 2021, and in 2022 the theme of the final issue was nudity and the photographs were inside the magazine rather than on the cover. 5225C (talk • contributions) 13:57, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- The origins of the nudity issue is what I was referring to, and I beg to differ on the rest, but then that's the fate of what it's all about, as the arts building deep comment to those who used to pass... to the old reid entrance...The really good thing is that you are editing uwa material - most oz uni articles are stale, caught in time traps, and are poorly written, or slave to recentism, even more so student facilities, and activities - good on you!
